Default Full cage in a stocker.......subframe connectors ???

Does a full roll cage installation----not roll bar----delete the necessity of subframe connectors or do they serve different functions ???

Putting a rollcage in without frame connectors is like leaving out some of the bars! It all works together, but the frame connectors are like the foundation in what's added to keep the chassis from flexing.

First time I saw subframe connectors it was because the seatmounts had rotted through the floor ! If your starting with a rustfree unibody you may get by with the stock floor and rockers. ---Trevor
